Pegasus Expert game Praga Caput Regni

Charles IV was crowned King of Bohemia and ruler of the Holy Roman Empire. From his Prague castle, he oversees the construction of new fortifications: a bridge over the Vltava, a university, and a cathedral within the castle walls. Prague is already one of the largest cities in Europe. King Charles will make it the capital of an empire!

In Praga Caput Regni, players take on the role of wealthy citizens organizing various construction projects in medieval Prague. By expanding their wealth and participating in construction, they gain favor with the king. Players choose from six always available actions on the game board, the "action crane," which are weighted with a constantly changing array of costs and benefits. With these actions, they can increase their resources, enhance the strength of their selected actions, and build the "New Prague City," the Charles Bridge, or city walls. They may also be able to perform additional actions or even participate in the construction of St. Vitus Cathedral. Clever players will discover synergies between carefully timed actions and the rewards from creating citizen projects as all mechanisms come together. At the end of the game, the player who has impressed King Charles the most wins.
